AES-67 and the Future of Interoperability
Nowadays, all integrators (and manufacturer, for that matter) desire to offer their customers platform interoperability between the various system components they install and support. David Fuller,Sr. Director of New Product Development, says “Unfortunately the prevailing perception within the industry is that ‘proprietary’ systems are closed for interoperation with other protocols and technologies. This is simply not the case.” QSC’s Q-SYS™ Platform was designed to follow prevailing IT standards and function with off-the-shelf, non-proprietary Ethernet switches. Its network protocol, Q-LAN, transports audio using the same layer 3 networking protocols that IT professionals worldwide already understand and support with all their other TCP/IP networked based systems.

New Videos Address Real-World Amplifier Specifications
In a new video recently released by QSC Cinema, Barry Ferrell, the company’s Senior Vice President and Chief Strategy Officer, provides a tutorial and demonstration of the power output capabilities of the new DPA/DPA-Q amplifier platform. “With the advent of immersive audio and the need for high powered surround loudspeakers, we’ve seen a fair amount of ‘overspecification’, where amplifiers are sized larger than they need to be for most common cinema applications,” says Ferrell. “Part of this comes from a misunderstanding of amplifier performance and specifications.” The video provides an overview of QSC’s new Class D amplifier platform, which is used in the DPA/DPA-Q cinema amplifiers and the CXD/CXD-Q and PLD series professional audio amplifiers.
